By Havana Insider

Many top Havana restaurants have great cuisine, expert Cuban chefs and drinks lists to last the night. But those below throw a heavy dose of awesome into the mix as well, with some of the best views out of the city.

Here are some of our favourite restaurants in Havana that also have amazing views.

Vistamar

You’ll be hard pressed to find a better restaurant view in Havana than the one at Vistamar. Located in the courtyard of an elegant Miramar mansion, you are so close to the Caribbean Sea it almost feels as if you’re sitting in the water. The grilled seafood is sublime and there is also an interesting – and reasonably priced – wine list.

Porto-Habana pairs authentic Cuban cuisine with stunning sunset views. Aside from panoramic views of the Havana coastline, the carefully crafted dishes also offer many photo opportunities of their own.

Don’t miss: the picadillo a la habanera and the traditional ropa vieja

Nazdarovie

Proving the deep joys and dimensions of Russian food, Nazdarovie is a singularly exceptional restaurant. Dine on the terrace overlooking a breathtaking view of the Malecon and the Caribbean. What a gem, not just for Cuba but for the world.

This seaside restaurant is located off a small bay where Miramar meets the Malecon and where the Almendares river ends. The restaurant has a lovely terrace facing the sea where guests can enjoy a drink while looking out over a tranquil inlet.
